Localizing SDGs Week 2021 19 to 22 April 2021 A series of virtual roundtables was organized jointly by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), Development Partners Network for Decentralization and Local Governance (DeLoG), the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) from 19 to 22 April 2021. The roundtables explored key components that contribute to creating an enabling environment for localizing the sustainable development goals (SDGs) 2030 where subnational and local governments are able to contribute meaningfully to the national SDG agenda. These enablers support the principle of ‘leaving no one behind’ and are applicable in various development contexts.
